BY LifeSiteNews.com JERUSALEM, March 15, 2005 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Israeli Jews and evangelical Christians have united to oppose the 2005 Gay and Lesbian World Pride Parade, scheduled for this summer in Jerusalem. The coalition has launched an international petition to have the event cancelled.“As friends of the state of Israel, we are in a state of heartbreak and shock to hear that you who govern and watch over Israel are planning to allow World Pride 2005, a worldwide gathering of homosexuals, to take place in the holy city of Jerusalem,” the petition states, according to a haaretz.com report. “You must know that Jerusalem is the Holy City, not only to you but to three of the world’s greatest religions: Judaism, Christianity and Islam. It has been the historic position of each of these faiths that homosexuality is an abomination to the one true God.”  The coalition, led by California Mission Valley Christian Fellowship Pastor Leo Giovinetti, is hoping the petition will pressure the Jerusalem municipality and the Ministry of Tourism to cancel the event.  See related LifeSiteNews.com coverage:  Pope Comments On World Gay Pride In Romehttp://www.lifesite.net/ldn/2000/jul/00071001.html  World Gay Pride: Catholics To Stage Counter Event In Romehttp://www.lifesite.net/ldn/2000/jun/00061301.htmltv http://www.lifesitenews.com/news/orthodox-israeli-jews-unite-with-evangelical-christian-group-to-fight-jerus/
